What to do in NYC this week

You used to slay it on the Sega and Waverunner was your expertise. Put your fake skills to the test and hop on a real jet ski to see the New York City.
You'll head out from Rockaway Beach in Queens and zip through the waters of Jamaica Bay. Witness the area's natural beauty and fascinating wildlife.
Take in awesome views of planes and birds gliding overhead while exploring the shorelines of Dubos Point Wildlife Sanctuary. Have fun whizzing through the water on your personal Jet Ski!
Before your journey is complete, you will get a chance to see an amazing Jamaica Bay sunset and parts of New York City you never knew existed.
Get out on the waves and see if you're as good as you remembered -- maybe do some sightseeing while you're at it.

How many cities hold as many architectural marvels as New York City? Now, it's one thing to look up and gasp, but it's a completely different experience from the surrounding rivers. This tour is lead by the American Institute of Architects NYC chapter, who'll tell stories about the city's finest masterpieces, from parks to bridges, and skyscrapers. Surrounding the city, you'll consume information about the new Freedom Towers, Brooklyn Bridge, Highline, and the entire post-industrial waterfront. Enjoy Manhattan's brilliance from the best view of all.

When was the last time you went a day without hearing sirens or honking, or an old man yelling at himself? That is part of the New York lifestyle. However, now, it's time for a break. Like the Dutch explorers nearly 400 years ago, you'll explore the island of Manhattan from the water's perspective. Unlike the Dutch, though, you'll travel under famous bridges, alongside the Financial District, and next to Lady Liberty. Sipping a delicious beverage, exit the bustling Manhattan life as you relax on the calm waters, and step onto this 80-foot, 1920's-style yacht.

It's time to make your Happy Hour routine a lot happier.
On this guided, one-hour tour through the Hudson River, you won't just experience the excitement of speeding through the water on a jet ski-- you'll also see New York in a brand new way.
Before you embark on your tour, you'll be given a thorough safety briefing on the safe operation of your jet ski as well as basic training and an explanation of your path through the Hudson.
Then, after departing from Liberty Landing Marina in New Jersey, you'll be led to such classic landmarks as Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty, Governor's Island and more. This is one urban aquatic adventure you won't want to miss!

Kind words from our customers

Vimbly service and communication was leaps and bounds above any other online interaction I have ever had.

Vimbly is the best! It is super convenient and makes trying new things easy. The classes they link you up with are extraordinary facilities that exceed expectations. I could not be happier after discovering Vimbly. A++

I have taken two tours with Vimbly and am looking forward to many more in the future! They have a wide variety of opportunities, many of which I would never have thought of doing. Both tours that I attended were well organized, interesting, and fun. I look to Vimbly for ideas and activities when I want to find something fun to do.

Used Vimbly 3 times now: booked a Knife Skills class at Institute of Culinary Education, booked tickets to Improvised Shakespeare (HOW DID THEY EVEN GET ACCESS TO THESE???), and booked tickets to an Improv show at the Upright Citizen's Brigade. Really simple and efficient way to find something to do and book it right away without ever having to pick up a phone. I like that you can search by date and also category.

As far as a rating, I'd absolutely give your site a 10. It's easy to use, easy to find whats upcoming, unambiguous and concise. It's something my mother could use without calling me seven times with questions. I've already pointed some friends to the site, and you can be sure I'll be using it in the future.

I already have recommended it to a friend! Several in fact. The site is such a good idea and I love how the people at Church Street knew we were coming and treated us like their own customers and not coupon redeemers. My girlfriend and I will definitely be going back there and are already looking on your site for what to do next weekend.

Evan W.

Easily one of the best dates I've been on, and I have Vimbly to thank for the idea. Planning to use it again while I'm in the city for the next month, and already reminded my coworkers about it.
